OnLocationYEG is a sketchbook project, created to celebrate the Arts and the city of Edmonton.

This book showcases Emily’s drawings of Edmonton, but also features 8 selected drawings by emerging artists.

OnLocationYEG is a limited edition artist book. It is carefully curated from 2 sketchbooks, 7 public drawing sessions, 16 participants, 28 submissions by attendees, and 8 honorariums.

Emerging Artists featured:
Adam Slusar
Angie Sotiropoulos
Gwen Tsui
Jessica Lui
Kyle Hack
Lon Wenger
Serena Tang
Terry Elrod

The book was made in Edmonton, by Edmonton artists, and printed locally. There are only 150 in this limited edition run.

This project is made possible by the Edmonton Arts Council.
